Ah DDD I'm so sorry my dude. Thoughts with you and your family right now.

I do occasional shop at the FB in Manchester, it's not bad once you get into the basement space where the actual comics are.

Travelling Man just down the road however is where it's really at, though true they've expanded their board game section recently you gotta chase that growing market I guess, their comics and manga selection is sublime. Staff are all absolute gems too.

As a Manc I feel obliged to praise the BBC for having the first wool companion in the form of John Bishop.

Life sucks living on the Wirrell, I'm sure he'll jump at the opportunity to go anywhere else in the universe.

Is Mando worth watching? I'm pretty much all SW'ed out for the next...decade at least.

But I can't deny....Pedro Pascal can sell me on almost anything.

[Peterloo]

Peterloo. Wow, that's a flick. Mike Leigh leaves us a bit cold at the end, with no real picture of the aftermath (Obligatory: other than the world we live in now) beyond a single funeral and an audience with Prince Regent Percy Percy, but other than that it's a pretty flawless piece of formal work that feels like it belongs in another era of cinema, not 2018. The anti-Bridgerton.

It's important to consider how this movie impacted how Lancastrian history was taught and understood.
Growing up I had no idea one of the single worst acts of domestic genocide in our countries long, sordid, blood soaked history happened within meters of the hospital I was born in.
Now it's part of a number of collage curriculums here in Bolton. Bury, Salford and Greater Manchester.

Indeed, it needed a bit more follow through post massacre, but my god does it deliver in every other sense.

Gadot was also a producer on WW84.

The second we hit the Israel/Palestine stuff I had to clock out and comeback to it later.

I did not want to deal with a corporate movie produced and starring Gal Gadot dealing with this subject, hell no.

I rewatched THE RISE OF SKYWALKER as part of a family zoom...thing that I'm just glad I was able to mute.

Don't rewatch THE RISE OF SKYWALKER. Don't make the same mistake I did, it's worse than we remembered.

Lads.

Read SAVAGE DRAGON.

This has been a PSA brought to you by the SAVAGE FINCAST PARTY.

Witness it.

BLOOD MERIDIAN by Cormac McCarthy


Cor. Bit good 'innit.

Took delivery of IN SIBERIA and THE FABLE OF VENICE today. I'm about half way caught up after falling off the Corot wagon a few years back, a most egregious crime.

Six more volumes to go and yet more Pratt is still being rolled out, what a time to be alive.

Do I have to read The Thesaurus before I read The Dictionary or would that be going against Tolkien's authorial intent?

FTFY. 

Sod it, I'll wait for the film adaptation then.

Do I have to read The Thesaurus before I read The Dictionary or would that be going against Tolkiens authorial intent?

I was about to ask if anyone had heard from Hawkmumbler recently

Ha! Just been a little busy lately what with one thing and another, still been checking in plenty but with 2020 malaise sinking in rarely felt the need to comment much.

I always pictured you as a gaunt, vampiric type.  Tits are always good though.
